Pictorial Tuesday 2 17 2026






 Valentine flowers from my son. Gotta love kids. After a hard day at work, he stopped by with flowers and a bit of candy for me before going home to take his wife out for a Valentine's dinner. It was a nice surprise.

The bird feeder, the squirrel has found it and is eating most of the seeds so I've taken a break for couple days of putting some in. I've had 23 species so far stop by. Even had a Raven.

Common Grackle
Dark-eyed Junco
White-breasted Nuthatch
American Tree Sparrow
American Goldfinch
House Finch
Brown-headed Cowbird
Blue Jay
California Towhee
Northern Cardinal
Common Starling
Northern Raven
Rock Dove
Pine Siskin
House Sparrow
California Quail
Carolina Wren
Red-Bellied Woodpecker
Anna Hummingbird
Mourning Dove
Downy Woodpecker
Red-winged Blackbird
Bewick's Wren



Above is the Raven. Didn't really care for it. Looked it up and says they are very intelligent. 


The cardinal is my favorite. I think this must be the female as it's not as colorful.


This is the goldfinch which I looked up and says they're not colorful in the colder months. I'm hoping they stop by again this summer when they're the beautiful yellow.

  4. What a sweet son! I’m sure the birds have appreciated all the feeding and yes, ravens are among the smartest of the birds.

  5. That's a nice collection of birds. I have ravens in the woods, but I've never seen them in the yard. I love watching the birds at the feeder pole. That reminds me, I need to put out some food today.
